Hi Roadside,
I think you said that it ran b4 your repaired exhaust.... if so, I would be looking very closely at the possibility that you knocked something loose. Of course it could be just a coincidence that a component went bad while you were repairing the exhaust. This is a really dumbass question, but, it is something I would be likely to do: did you disconnect the coil wire before starting your repair job and then not replace it? I have done it. Another remote possibility: is there an alarm system in the car? When I first got my '82t it had an active alarm that caused mayhem until I was able to disco it. I'll keep thinking and post if I think of anything.
